Do companions benefit from enchanted gear?

I'm wondering if I should enchant my followers armor.. so they benefit from health and stat boosts?

Good Question,. i just tested it with a Chest Armor enchanted with Health. Using the Console on PC to show me the followers life, getavinfo health. It showed the Increase. At least for health it seems to work,

POSSIBLE SPOILER

I've heard people say they gave Aela a bow enchanted with Paralysis and it worked really well. So I think the real question is do you have to re-fill enchanted weapons as they're used.

Paralysis? I have not come across any weapons with a paralysis enchant yet. Hope I do soon as it would be nice.

Short answer. Yes they do. If you also give them potions they will use them as needed.

I'm on the xbox 360. I gave Farkas an axe enchanted with lightning and a fiery bow. And while I do check often, the charge doesn't seem to be going down and he uses both.

PC and it doesn't lower the charges for me either.
